It's been a busy week with 3 x logo redraws from jpgs, 2 x A3 poster designs, double sided flyers, business cards, product catalogues, document redraws, a tshirt design and so much more...
Please allow plenty of time on your deadlines if you need anything done.
The office will be closed tomorrow as I take a small break.
Everything will be back to normal on Monday!
Have an awesome weekend everyone.
I'm so excited to be able to share with you the first of a series of illustrated posters I recently did for a client. I cannot wait to see this printed and hung on their office wall!
*superheroes are purchased stock images.
I've been working on a really cool illustrative project this week. I can't wait to show you all! Here's a sneak peak!!
Please be aware that the hours at my desk can be a little unconventional during the school holidays!
Call or email if you need anything done urgently.
This week has been all about business cards. I lost track after the 12th one!!!
Plus a logo redraw for a client that only has been using very low resolution jpg files for way too long.
And to finish the week off, artwork setup for another NCR booklet.
Have an awesome weekend!
So you just want a small change made on your business cards and have been quoted $75 just for artwork?
Give me a call or send through an email and be surprised on how much I can save your business.
Note: prices may vary based on the format of your original artwork and how much time it takes to make changes.
It's been a busy week already with Labels, Banners, Magnets, Fillable PDF files, a few Logo's and more! All completed and sent for print or even ready for clients to use immediately themselves.
I really love working with so many diverse companies. From Engineers, Coffee suppliers, Chandler (Candle maker), Welders, and Transport companies to name a few this week.
I am looking forward to the weekend and what next week brings!
My hydration is on brand today. Had some errands to quickly attend to this morning. Now onto t- shirt illustrations and the beginning stages of two logos!
Happy Mother's Day to all the mum's today! Hopefully you all get a break from looking for lost things today.
On this Anzac Day, we honor the courage and sacrifice of those who served and continue to serve our nation.
We remember the bravery of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps who fought valiantly in Gallipoli and countless other battles, defending our freedoms and values.
Let's pause to reflect on the profound impact of their selflessness and resilience, shaping our history and inspiring generations to come.
May we never forget the sacrifices made by our servicemen and women, and may their legacy continue to remind us of the importance of unity, remembrance, and gratitude.
Lest we forget. 🌹🇦🇺🇳🇿
I'm working on NCR booklet artwork today.
NCR's are "No Carbon Required" booklets that are mainly used for purchase orders, worksheets and invoices. NCR's allow you to create duplicate copies without having to write the same thing over and over again.
Need a copy for the client, one for technician and one to go to your accounts department?
This is where these books save you time and confusion!

AI is here to stay! Last week I did a beginners lesson on what AI and GenAI are all about. Thankfully I had previously used GenAI and knew a little already which was handy. There were lots of acronyms and jargon to get my head around!
I personally think that we have a long journey to go with AI generating graphics. Hands seem to be a big issue still and creating press ready files with legible text is still a little way off!
Have you used any AI or GenAI tools yet? Was it for your business or personal use?
I would love to hear how you've used it successfully.

I love being able to give back to our community!
Did you know that when I'm not busy creating awesome designs, I spend my free time volunteering as a coach and scorer for my local softball club, ranging from under 10s to Adults? 🥎 It's truly a passion of mine to help nurture the skills and talents of players of all ages, and to contribute to the vibrant softball community we have in Macarthur!
Being part of these teams isn't just about the game – it's about fostering camaraderie, teamwork, and personal growth. Whether it's coaching young aspiring athletes or keeping score for the seasoned players, every moment spent on the field is incredibly rewarding.
I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity to give back in this way to our local community. 🌟
It's a leap year and we are all about leaping here. Happy 29th of February!
Do you know someone who is looking for a cost-effective graphic design solution?
Maybe they want to avoid the hassle of in-house staff expenses – sick pay, annual leave, or superannuation etc, by bringing in a new staff member?
Now is the time to suggest to them about using a "ghost" designer. "Ghost" designing is something I have done quite often where I have assisted other graphic designers with overflow work, supported printing companies with larger projects they couldn't dedicate the time for, and aided private enterprises in expanding and providing services without those exorbitant costs. All without their clients being aware that someone else was doing the work behind the scenes.
As an experienced "ghost" designer I can help with your projects no matter how big or small.
Email: [email protected] or private message.

Wick'd Candles had put together their own artwork for the box labels for these candles. However they just needed a little help to get them in the correct format for the printer including trims and bleed which I was happy to help with!
These candles are totally on brand for Youth Solutions and were perfect for their DENIM & DIAMONDS annual charity night. The mirror foiled label just made the packaging that little bit extra special too!!!!
A little birdy tells me that all 100 candles sold out on the night! Well done!!
New logo design!
This was great logo to work on.
Sunburnt Prints are providing unique framed prints of photos taken by the photographer/owner that are truly amazing!
Check out the phenomenal landscape photos by Sunburnt Prints and their new logo already in use on their website!

Boo!!! Now I have your attention!
Is your company not large enough to justify hiring a full-time in-house designer, yet you find yourself dedicating valuable time to graphic design projects instead of focusing on your core business strengths?
Let's have a chat, and we can explore various options for collaboration and pricing that can cater to your specific business needs.
This was a recent logo design I did for a client. This was a quirky fun illustration project where the client wanted a black and gold logo with a poodle and skull!
TUESDAY TIP: Today it's all about "Safe space" on your designs.
Just like last week with adding bleed, designers also make sure that your important information doesn't sit too close to the inside edges which I like to call the "Safe space".
This guarantees that the guillotine trimming your artwork does not accidentally cut off important information if it shifts slightly.
It's also good design practice to leave some space around design work to let your eyes settle into the design and for it to not be too busy!
